Biography
Prof/ Dr Geoffery Hayes is interested in history under teachers like Jack Sinkins and Paul Voisin. A trip to Europe with my brother and parents in 1972 was a real rush. I couldn't get enough of those Church crypts. For no reason that I can remember I took Geography or Political Science at Wilfrid Laurier University. Doug Lorimer taught my first university history course, Twentieth Century British History. My second history course was a History of French Canada with Terry Copp. I double majored in History and Political Science, but was already leaning to the historical side when I graduated. Currently I am a member of the University of Waterloo Senate and the University's Board of Governors.
